It's my love for the people that made me a scientist and a monk (a poet even), not my intellect.

I am very much aware of the fact that there would come people who would attempt to proclaim me being a reincarnation of various sages and monks. But mind you, o conscientious soul, soul doesn’t travel through time, only ideas do, for glorious ideas seek out various vessels through time and inspire the whole world by shaping their psyche, over and over.

I wanted to use science in a way that would have direct humanitarian consequences in interhuman relationships. And now even if I die, my works will keep on creating lion-hearted humanitarian torch-bearers of progress, for ages to come.

Without the basic humane connection, even the expertise of a scientist turns worthless.

I haven't come for science, I have come for love.

I am a scientist, which means, I don't have the luxury to talk nonsense, if it can't pass the test of reasoning, no matter how much it sounds philosophical or spiritual.

There is an inexplicable sense of relief in being proven wrong, which perhaps can only be realized by either a scientist or a philosopher.

I am a monk at heart - a scientist at brain - a philosopher at conscience.

True understanding is an indivisible land of liberation beyond all judgement and all conclusions.
